House of Representatives member: Makinde warns that lawmakers reporting on Ondo Governor Aiyedatiwa to Tinubu will only unleash chaos.

He claims that the political crisis in the state last year was resolved by the President's personal participation, but these parliamentarians were not involved in any of that process. As legislators in the state reported Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa to President Bola Tinubu, Dr. Abiola Peter Makinde, a member of the House of Representatives representing the Ondo East/West Federal Constituency, stated that a crisis was imminent in Ondo State.

 Makinde stated, "Life will happen to all of us differently and we need to take serious caution as we play this politics," in a statement he signed and released on Friday. Heating up the political climate in order to obtain unfair favor wouldn't have been required if political involvement leading to leadership was only about service.

"Deliberate falsehood and chicaneries would have been eradicated," he declared. I am appreciative of their two votes of confidence in my abilities and can only explain why I offered to serve the wonderful people of the Ondo East/West Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives.If they hadn't made the mistake of making it appear as though the letter was coming from the Ondo State Caucus in the Green chambers but was actually signed by only five of them, I wouldn't have responded to the sudden letter allegedly written and signed by five Ondo State House of Representatives members against Governor Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa.

I need things to be made clear because I want history to be nice to me. "Regarding my colleagues, I believe this letter has exposed individuals who would rather instigate a crisis inside the party than work to prevent one. It is counterproductive that legislators who lead their communities would wake up out of nowhere to defend the late former governor Rotimi Akeredolu, whom they deserted when he was still alive. The federal legislator stated that although the former governor's family claims to love him more in death than in life, the caucus has not felt it appropriate to visit them after his passing.

What part did the caucus play in the despicable days of dirty politics that almost brought down our state the previous year? To protect the state from those who purposefully obstructed it, how many letters did we write to the president? He asked. He claims that the political crisis in the state last year was resolved by the President's personal participation, but these parliamentarians were not involved in any of that process.

"It is simple to analyze the people in that statement to demonstrate that this is about the upcoming governorship election in the State, not about Ondo State or her people," he stated. Although one of the five writers of this letter is a well-known candidate, they all back different candidates.The caucus leader, Hon. Adesida, is vying to be the running partner of a candidate for the state's governorship. Hon. Odimayo is a candidate for governor. While Hon. Akinfiranye is the director general of the campaign of another candidate for governor, Wale Akinterinwa, who is his kinsman, Hon. Adelegbe is the director general of the campaign of another contender, Hon. Mayowa "Akinfolarin."

As a result, it is simple to determine who is telling the truth in all of this. Fighting alongside someone you believe to be your adversary is not a noble endeavor. I refuse to participate in such.The facts must be stated, even if I haven't been asked to speak on behalf of the governor. Every accusation made against him was made without due process. The five legislators were eager to punish a man who had done them no harm.

Regardless of who gets the credit, it wasn't until Aiyedatiwa was appointed governor that the $35,000 wage award and the 2017 salary arrears that were purportedly Akeredolu's proposal were paid. The government makes its expenditures monthly. Akeredolu was out of office for almost six months prior to his passing. How can parliamentarians, who are expected to be well-versed in government operations, assert that he endorsed the current course of action more than half a year ago?

It says volumes about the hatred in their hearts that politicians would even scoff at such admirable accomplishments rather than celebrate them. If Akeredolu took the initiative as they claimed, then why is the governor held accountable for erasing Aketi's legacy when he has publicly promised to finish all of his former boss's projects?It is absurd that these politicians, who feel threatened by the governor's growing popularity ahead of the upcoming election, would assert that there is no unity within the party when it is they who are fomenting faux crises through misleading narratives.

"The claim that Aiyedatiwa has sidelined the party chairman is akin to a beer parlor talk since the chairman hasn't raised such with the party in Ondo state and Abuja. This governor held an expanded stakeholders meeting of the party for the first time in many years, and it has given members of the party a sense of belonging and they are happier than before." Calm politics is a necessary component of harmony. Peace is the precondition for progress.

If Aiyedatiwa can turn his late boss's alleged adversaries into allies, then I applaud him. Friendship is a difficult task in and of itself, let alone taking on the political opponents of another. I'm happy that the President of Nigeria is a fantastic role model for a leader who is willing to show forgiveness and make accommodations for people who have harmed him over his political career.How could politicians who were elected by their people to promote peaceful coexistence imply that late Akeredolu's Deputy Governor, Chief Adelami Olayide, is an opponent of his even in death?This individual even dismantled his organization to assist Aketi in the reelection when he was unable to secure the party ticket.

Even after one of the sons passed away, would you still want to stoke the flames of hate amongst them? This is not kind. It is not fair to Aketi. He went on to say that the governor has the authority to dissolve the state excos. He emphasized that, given the chaos that had engulfed the state while the late Governor Akeredolu was away, the only logical course of action would have been to dissolve the cabinet in order to allow for new ideas, new life, and the prevention of sabotage.

I may pound my chest and claim that the anxiety around the elections and the next gubernatorial contest is the cause of this anxiousness. It is selfish to do this. It does not even come close to showing affection for the deceased Aketi. We should all examine our hearts and consciences. King only by God is crowned. What is, will be, is.Blackmailing the governor is a bad idea if these lawmakers fear that the governor's popularity would hurt their prospects of being re-elected in 2027. "Aiyedatiwa is a man of peace who has shown a willingness to collaborate with all parties. Rather than extorting the governor, let my colleagues speak with him and engage in negotiations," he declared.
